hpav(1)                                      Qualcomm Atheros Open Powerline Toolkit                                     hpav(1)

NAME
       hpav - HomePlug AV Packet Listener

SYNOPSIS
       hpav [options]

DESCRIPTION
       Display HomePlug AV Ethernet messages sent by a local powerline device to the host or the broadcast address.  Do not dis‐
       play HomePlug AV frames sent from the host to powerline devices or forwarded over powerline through the  local  powerline
       devices.

       The  program  is  an  example of a simple packet listener and daemon.  Engineers and software developers can extend it to
       build custom sniffers or servers.  The framework is present but additional features must be added.

       This program is part of the Qualcomm Atheros Powerline Toolkit.  See the plc man page for an  overview  and  installation
       instructions.

OPTIONS
       -i interface
              Names  the host ethernet interface to watch.  The named interface, such as eth0, eth1 and so on, must be connected
              to a HomePlug AV ethernet-to-powerline bridge adapter to receive any HomePlug AV traffic.  The  default  interface
              is eth1.

       -q     Quiet mode.  Suppress the printing of the normal message descriptions on stdout.

       -v     Verbose  mode.   Displays  incoming  frames  in  hexadecimal dump format on stdout.  This option is independent of
              option -a which prints VS_ARPC message text on stderr.

       -?, --help
              Print program help summary on stdout.  This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.

       -!, --version
              Print program version information on stdout.  This option takes precedence over other options on the command line.
              Use  this option when sending screen dumps to Atheros Technical Support so that they know exactly which version of
              the Linux Toolkit you are using.  See the HomePlug AV Specification for a description of all HomePlug  AV  message
              types.   See  the  Qualcomm Atheros INT6000 Firmware Reference Manual for a description of Atheros Vendor Specific
              message types.

EXAMPLES
       The following command monitors the default host interface eth1 for HomePlug AV traffic and dumps detected frames  on  the
       console  as they arrive.  To terminate the process, type ^C or ^Z at the console.  This program is usually run in a sepa‐
       rate console window while performing powerline operations.

          # hpav

       The following command monitors host interface eth4 for incoming  HomePlug  AV  frames  and  dumps  writes  them  to  file
       hpav.log.   Frames are printed in hexadecimal dump format because option -v is present.  Terminate the foreground process
       by typing ^C or ^Z at the console.

          # hpav -v -i eth4 &gt; hpav.log
